I’m queerly the 'Leigh you searched for! 😉 I do tech things, enjoy pinball, try to draw, make a little music now and then, occasionally jump in the ocean and breathe underwater, and marvel at how I’ve lasted this long in this world. Trying to do my part to make it better.

Sending best wishes that your family will be safe and sound soon. 💜 If you choose to do any work on Memmy during this time, please let it only be because you need to do it for yourself, like as a distraction or just to feel some sort of normalcy. You don’t owe us a thing.
I think I prefer the old one, honestly, and I’d switch back if the option were available. But hey, it’s just an icon and the new one certainly isn’t bad or anything. 🙂
It’s all good, whenever the fix comes is fine, you’re already super on top of things. 😄
I get the same error when I accidentally downvote (I often slide too far since I’m on an iPad) and the instance I’m on definitely has downvotes disabled.
I’d just like to say thanks for taking OP’s question so seriously and going beyond mere transparency and into genuine user education. Understanding your decision-making process on this is really awesome from a “can I trust this app?” perspective, in addition to the source code being open to all.
What, you don’t think a self-professed “former therapist” is an expert on infectious disease and vaccine development??? 😂
I do have to agree that the medical and scientific community’s consensus shouldn’t be “beyond reproach”, but only because the scientific method requires being open to new evidence that shows past theories to be flawed. (Key word evidence.)
Alas, a common tactic for spreading misinformation can be summed up as “a mosquito doesn’t care if the window is only open by an inch or all the way, it’ll fly inside regardless.”
I’d love to have this feature, too. I typically use the in-app browser (web view), but sometimes would rather open a link in Safari proper. Probably so I can leave the tab open for two months until I finally admit I’ll never read it. 😅 But seriously, I’d use this feature, too. Even just a “Copy URL” to clipboard option would be helpful!
